[Adium-devl] [Adium-feedback] Version bump for Bug #6131

[Eric Richie]

Hmmm, I've definitely been versioning bugs based on the most recent report
to indicate that it is still an issue...  But I do indeed see the merit in
leaving it as opened.  It sounds like we need to come up with an "official
policy" on this.
